Aloe vera gel. The real thing from a health shop or chemist. even better, the plant itself. Not very pretty but I keep one on my kitchen window sill. It is absolutely brilliant for healing burns and for skin in general. Keep applying it. Pain usually gone within half an hour. Used Hawaiian Tropic aloe vera after sun once after burned my legs, same result burn went very quickly. If you get a prepared gel, keep it in the fridge. Dont know whether you've left it too late after 3 days but try it anyway. I/ve also heard Bio Oil is wonderful but check it out first. I don't think it should be used on broken skin either.
Hope this helps

For a burn use aloe vera, until it heals to a crust and then start putting vitamin e oil on it whenever you think about it during the day. I get the kind that comes in the big gel caps and then I take one of those t pins you get to use in sewing section by the straight pins. I take some wire cutters and clip it to about one half of an inch long and poke a hole in the capsule with it and then put the pin in the hole, to keep it from leaking out. It kind of seals it self off and doesn't leak and I can put it in my coat pocket or on my desk.

yes bio-oil is very good for getting rid of scars from stretch marks, to scars with cuts that have required stiches to help hell, im sure this would work wonders on your arm. its not cheep its about 9 pound a bottle, or could be more by now.
other then that maybe cocobutter will work i wouldnt know but bio oil is brillent and i swear my likfe by this, i use it lots as im prone to scares as i have constant falls due to a bad ankle that i have, it has also faded the scar that i had on the operation of my ankle which was a very big scar either side

Cocoa Butter works great. I cut my face up in an accident pretty bad and used it. I don't have any scarring from it.

Yes, try as pure as Vitamin E oil as you can find. You can buy it at the drug store or Vitamin shop I usually use 36,000 IU dose. It works great

Just use any good moisturising cream eg Vaseline Intensive or E45.

TRY VITAMINE E CREAM WITH ALOE VERA IN IT.
ITS LIKE A GEL, IT SOOTHES THE BURN WELL, IT COOLS DOWN QUICKLY.
